    It does say a lot when this country’s most progressive administration also couldn’t help itself but shovel money and weapons in full support of the most live-publicized genocide in the world.

      Yes, no justification for Biden’s position in Israel. He was fucked either way politically, by design, but from a human perspective, his age was showing there especially. It felt very clear that he was/is not paying attention to the evolving reality of today in Israel. He likely couldn’t comprehend it and in his mind just defaulted to his comfortable 1994 perception of Israel.

      Again though, I’m talking about overall work of the administration. His presidency would get many categorical A+ historically, but his Israel response and blind support would be a D- at best, if one considered some of the rhetoric (though not actually supported by action ultimately).

      And of course, always worth mentioning, that the alternative is US pouring gasoline on this conflict and arming Israel with flamethrowers and gas masks to avoid indoctrinated foot soldiers being slowed down by the overwhelming smell of blackened, blistered flesh and incinerated hair. Here it comes.
